Steelers Win! Now Go Make This Joey Porter Jr. Trade

The Steelers are 2-1 — and suddenly this offense looks alive.

After two weeks of wondering whether Pittsburgh might have one of the NFL's worst offenses, the Steelers put up 411 yards and 30 points against Cincinnati. Aaron Rodgers delivered one of his best games as a Steeler, Jaylen Warren exploded for a career-high 176 yards from scrimmage, the tight ends finally became a factor, and changes along the offensive line helped give Rodgers the clean pocket this offense desperately needed.

So what changed — and is any of it sustainable?

Gavin Dawson and Newbear Lesniewski break down everything that went right in the 30-27 win over Cincinnati, including Warren forcing 10 missed tackles on 20 touches, Pittsburgh's massive improvement on third down, the explosive plays that finally appeared and the offensive adjustments that may have unlocked something for Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers.

But there's also a Joey Porter Jr. problem.

Watching Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins combine for 188 yards made it pretty obvious how much Pittsburgh could use JPJ. At the same time, if the Steelers are actually willing to listen to trade offers, Gavin has a Cowboys-Steelers proposal that could immediately address another Pittsburgh weakness.

Would you trade Joey Porter Jr. for a starting-caliber guard like T.J. Bass plus draft compensation?

Gavin covers the Cowboys every day on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas-Fort Worth and explains why Bass could be available, why Pittsburgh should be interested, what Dallas might be willing to pay and how a deal could give the Steelers a bridge at guard while Mason McCormick and Will Dunkle continue to develop.

Plus: Derrick Harmon delivers the defensive play of the game, Esezi Otomewo and the revamped offensive line get their flowers, and we look ahead to Thursday night in Cleveland with first place in the AFC North on the line.

Steelers Nation: Does this win change what you think this team can be? And what would it take for YOU to trade Joey Porter Jr.?
